And then the light went again…

If you know of my light bulb saga you will be sad to know that I seem to have a problem again.

Since my apartment is all spick and span hopefully one light bulb not working won’t get me too down.

So this morning I was just looking around my apartment, making sure everything would be okay for a showing and I looked up at the kitchen light fixture and lo! one light bulb (the same one) was yet again not on. I will have to check but I don’t think it blew because I changed them all at the same time. This explains why I’ve been thinking it’s a tad bit darker than usual in my apartment, but humans, aeons of conditioning to not look up.

This time, I will call my landlords and I don’t care if it comes on when they come. It will be their last two months of me…I was never a pest before. I think what it must be is that there’s a loose connection which is why it’s sometime-ish.

I liked having light.

Evil Fees followup

It seems the university (or is it the government, I can’t remember) has deported international students before for not paying all your fees.

I don’t know if I want to be deported…I do want to go home but I also want to graduate.

Anyway, this is what I’m protesting.

Big step…very scary

I just did something, which to the average person mightn’t sound scary but well to me, it is sort of big.

I just gave my friends here at grad school this link.

*ponders*

who helps me with Linux and has helped me with Linux for the past 2 and a half years.

who helped me get the windows fonts installed on my laptop running Red Hat 9 and so now I can now see Garamond on my blog and who also helped me work out how to run the Firefox RSS Reader extension, and waded through the umbrella barring my cubicle to show me what to do because as usual I am *quite* lost!

yipppeee!!

and that’s only what he did today!!!
